XPS 8300 GPU Upgrade
has 4 HDMI ports. Even though it seemed to be compatible and I was assured it would work, it didn't - all I got was 3 blank screens. Does anyone know if a GPU exists that will run 3 integrated monitors at 1920 x 1080 resolution on an XPS 8300? Thanks for your attention to my question.​
